sachin is great player in world cricket everbody knows that 17000 above runs in his age ponting will beat sachin then he is in after 20 years how can it possibe
Don't u know that australians how they treated us in australia and now they play mind games but look at them. They r shameful 4 their act and v hv out reached them in all department with 2-0 defeat. i hope u all guys know this. so please keep ur mouth shut...............
Sachin is in bad form in tests and against South Africa he has tough challenge from the bowlers of pace and bounce- Ntini, Nel and Pollock. It is easier series for Ponting who is facing weak English attack and Lara facing Pak attack without Asif, Shoiab and Sami. Lara and Ponting will overtake Sachin but it may be just for now.
I think that Ricky Ponting will eventually brake Tendulkers recoerd becaues Tendulker is badly out of form, making a century every 10 matches, getting them against Bangladesh and zimbabwe and his average is getting lower and lower. Then on the other side there is Ricky Ponting. He is scoring a cantury every 3 matches, scoring twin centuries, his average getting higher and higher and he is getting his centuries against top teams like South Africa and Sri Lanka. it is only as matter of years maybe even months before Ponting takes the record.
Records are made to be broken.But the class of an individual player cant be broken.Sachin's class is unique from others.Even if his record is broken in next 2 years,he would be the Batting Maestro of Cricket which cant be neglected.
RE:Sachin's record eclipsed

the record of the sachin will be broken soon because the way with which ricky plays is really unbelievable.
I believe that Sachin is a great player but when it comes to performing against very good sides his record doesnt show that.I beleive thaT Sachins record will be broken if he is not able to reinvent and modify his game as to other modern players like Hayden & POnting have done... In the present lot they have a very good chance of eclipsing Sachins record IF following conditions prevail....
1)Sachins poor form continues along with his unknown injuries for another couple of years 2)Ricky continues his very good form and reinvents himself like his former captain Steave Waugh whose last 8-10 years have been outstanding and incomparable with any other contemporary players of this generation. 3)Australia continues to play more tests compared to India.
I think these will be the most important factors in next 2 years so as to say who will emerge the winner.
But i stil belive that "FORM IS TEMPORARY AND CLASS IS PERMANENT"...... and according to LAW OF AVERAGES....SACHIN has to fire in the coming months.
Sachin is past his prime..everyone can see that his timing is not there, comfort level is missing at crease, and he is striving to make even 1 or 2's. At this rate centuries are now tough nut to crack for him...whereas Ponting,Hayden and Lara, almost score and smash at will...also at critical times...where Sachin always falters. Unless cricket Board immediately come to his rescue, and quickly arrange matches with Kenya,Bangladesh,Zimbabwe etc...his record is sure to fall more sooner than we expect. He must retire now, as still he is at his peak record wise, and not face the music as Mr. Ganguly. There are more ways for him to contribute to Indian cricket, and end of the road is in sight for him.
